Subject: Executive Committee meeting for August 2, 2023 
  
Dear representatives of the Islands Trust Executive Committee 
  
I received a copy of the agenda for tomorrow’s meeting yesterday evening and notice that 
Bowen Island’s zoning 608-2023 and 609-2023 are up for consideration/approval.  
  
I was a bit panicked as our council has indicated that this consideration by you would not be 
made until after 3
rd
 reading, if we get that far. 
  
Also I would like to know why so many of Section 5, the policies pertaining to sustainable 
communities, are Not Applicable (N/A). 
  
Finally, our Mayor and relevant committees have been clear with us that the transportation report 
and environmental report among others are incomplete/insufficient.  
  
I ask you to please hold off making any decisions at this point. I fear that by pre-emptively 
approving the OCP and LUB changes, the path towards overnight camping at Cape Roger Curtis 
becomes more inevitable, despite a majority of Bowenians being passionately against this 
planned development. 
  
Thank you, 
Julie Vik

Subject: POLICY STATEMENT DIRECTIVES ONLY CHECK LIST 
  
Hello Executive Committee, 
 
I am writing today after reading the agenda for your upcoming meeting. I want to ask for clarification 
with regard to the Policies for Sustainable Communities section of your Directives checklist, attached, 
with regard to the rezoning application presented by Metro Vancouver for the property at Cape Roger 
Curtis, on Bowen Island . 
 
I am deeply concerned that section 5.2.4 has been deemed Not Applicable.
